VillaChris Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 They can't have got many more points than us at this stage last season, we had 15 points by end of November so factor in extra 2-3 games and it's not that big a difference.

After 12 games we had 11 points, Leeds currently have 14. That also includes us having played Tottenham, Arsenal, Man City and Liverpool, so it's not like they would've had a much harder start. Although come back in one game, as we had 14 points after 13 games when we beat Newcasltle.

One For The Road Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 How on earth did we get thrashed at home by this lot? After beating Liverpool and Leicester too. So infuriating. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all about that 17th spot for them Just like us, I bet their fans couldn't care less if they finished 17th. There does seem to be more teams struggling this season compared to last so I think Leeds will be ok. However, they need to learn that you can't expect to blow teams away just because you work harder and play good attacking football. Otherwise they struggle. That defensive performance was not good last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quality defeats they get. No team does it like Leeds do. They've shown the whole of the league the secret of how to play vs West ham 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 They've reached Newcastle levels of delusions this season. I doubt their current PPG even puts them in the top 20 of promoted teams in prem history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumstopdogs Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 They'll probably finish somewhere between 12th and 17th - not a great team but certainly not crap. I do like the intensity to their play if I'm being honest. Certainly don't derserve most of the over the top praise they get though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are better than sheff utd wba fulham and Burnley I still half expect Burnley to put some sort of run together. Leeds really need to pick up plenty of points now before the fatigue sets in or they'll suffer like us last season. I'm not sure Bielsa has it in him to transform them into tighter defensive unit like Dean did with us after lockdown to grind out points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The intensity is impressive but they need somebody in the midfield to hold the ball longer play some short passes to save energy at times. Its why the Barcelona team were scary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
